Coming soon!

You know when you're at a comic convention, and there's just so much awesome new stuff you need (like, from the D+Q table, for example), and then with your arms full of books you ask the friendly booth worker if, by chance, they might have a bag to put all that in? And then they look at you, sort of apologetically, but also sort of with this plastic-bags-are-bad-for-the-...

My Favorite Day of the Week

...

With all the great graphic novels being published these days it's hard to believe that as recently as 1980 (Ok, seems recent to me!) comics were on the verge of oblivion. Oh, I remember it well: "Epic Illustrated" (don't ask) was considered cutting edge comics in those days. And there were all sorts of embarrassing start-up companies and comic titles...

One of my favorite pieces from the comics issue of McSweeney's from a couple of years back was "Two Questions" by Lynda Barry. It's one of the best explorations of the roots of creativity I can think of. Within only a handful of pages Barry deftly examines the self-doubt that often hinders or even cripples the creative process for so many people. This...

You don't come across good collections of "gag" cartoons very often these days. In fact, I can't remember if any good gag cartoon books have been published in my adult lifetime. Well, Drawn & Quarterly published this one just a couple of weeks ago, written and drawn by Tom Horacek. Gag cartoon collections are actually not part of what D+Q publishes,...

Vanity Fair

Madonna...pfft! Vanity Fair is looking forward to What It is!

Unlike anything you have ever read....
